Product Details

Antique Serial #B901 This offering is for the pictured Portuguese Model 1896 Mannlicher Short Rifle. An interesting Mannlicher small arm, maker marked from the Steyr Arsenal and dated 1896 on the side rail. Portugal ordered only 8000+/- (small for military orders) of these Mosquetons as a trial item. Not adopted wide scale most were relegated to colonial service where they were used extensively in tropical conditions.

Portuguese crest of King Carlos is atop the receiver. Metal finish has worn to gun metal gray and patina. 24 inch barrel, Mannlicher action.

European hard wood stock with wear of the years.

Chambered in 6.5x53r Mannlicher the bore has very good rifling frost lands and grooves. Import marked on the left receiver, incorrectly as the similar appearing Romanian M1893 Mannlicher.

Makes a good rifle for the military collector.
